North United 5K

Get ready to lace up for the North United 5K, a vibrant community event set to take place on Saturday, April 25, 2026, in Cumming, GA. Starting and finishing at North Forsyth High School, this race calls upon students, families, and teachers to hit the pavement for a fun and meaningful experience that directly supports local schools and fosters a stronger, healthier community.

Participants in the 5K can expect water stations approximately every 1.5 miles to help them stay hydrated throughout the course. While a detailed course map is still to be revealed, the event encourages a manageable pace, requiring participants to maintain at least a 16-minute mile. Typical race day conditions in late April offer pleasant running weather, with historical highs around 73°F and lows around 50°F, accompanied by only a 14% chance of precipitation, providing an ideal climate for a spirited run or walk.

More than just a race, the North United 5K is designed as a family-friendly gathering, promoting fitness and camaraderie within the North United community. The day kicks off with check-in opening at 7:00 AM, followed by a Fun Run at 8:00 AM, and the main 5K event starting at 8:30 AM. Join fellow community members for an uplifting morning that celebrates collective spirit and commitment to local education.
